Build and preview a FastBCP export command WITHOUT executing it. Shows the exact CLI command with passwords masked. If no parallelism method is specified, one is auto-suggested based on the source database type. Does NOT test connectivity or execute the export. After reviewing, pass the command to fastbcp_execute_export.

Execute a FastBCP export command that was previously built by fastbcp_preview_export. Requires confirmation=true as a safety gate. Does NOT build the command — the command string must come from a prior fastbcp_preview_export call. Will fail if the FastBCP binary is not installed.

Get information about FastBCP capabilities, parallelism recommendations, workflow guidance, or binary version. Use action to select what information you need. Read-only, does not require database connectivity.

Build and preview a FastTransfer database-to-database transfer command WITHOUT executing it. Shows the exact CLI command with passwords masked. If no parallelism method is specified, one is auto-suggested based on the source database type. Does not test connectivity or execute the transfer. After reviewing, pass the command to fasttransfer_execute_transfer.
